Course Description

Learn how to edit video in Final Cut Pro X. If you've never used Final Cut Pro X before, that's okay. If you've never edited video of any sort before, that's okay. This tutorial will help you get comfortable using Final Cut Pro X.

If you choose to do this, you can follow along, using the same practice media you see me using in the videos. This will give you a chance to get "hands on" experience with the tools in Final Cut Pro X as you edit an actual video project. The practice media is a downloadable zip file from within the first lesson.

Along the way, you'll see:

  • Different ways to edit video

  • How to create slow motion effects

  • How to add titles to your projects

  • How to fine-tune edits

  • How to add music

  • How to import video into your project

  • How to export the completed video

I've also added an Additional Content section where I demonstrate additional useful things to know about Final Cut Pro. For example, if you want to create animations in Final Cut Pro, the tool to use for this is called "Keyframes" and there's a 17 minute video on keyframes alone.

Whether you've never used Final Cut Pro before, or you're an intermediate user, this course should be helpful to you.

As for me, it is very good for beginners like me. I have never worked with FCP and after this class, I have some idea of how it works and what is the difference between FCP, PP and DaVinci. I gave it 4.5 stars because it is a good explanation and the instructor has a nice clear voice and good English to understand if English is not your native language. I gave half star less as there can be more about colour correction.

This was a brilliant introduction to FCPX. The instructions were clear, and repeated often enough. I particularly liked the emphasis on organising your work. It was helpful to be given clips to work on and practise along with the tutor. Izzy speaks rather quickly but this was easily remedied by adjusting the speed to 75%.

I haven't used FCP in over 10 year and I was tasked with putting together a 15 min video for a family members memorial service, But only had two days to complete the project. I bought this course based on the reviews and it's length. I spent 3 hrs taking the course and was able to refer back to it when needed. I was able to complete the project on time and it was VERY well received! Thank you!

An excellent introduction that encourages you to understand the tools and to start using them creatively. The use of the sample video to illustrate key points is particularly helpful and builds confidence. While there is more to know and learn this tutorial provides a sound start and is well worth the time spent going through it.

As a fairly computer illiterate beginner of Final Cut Pro, this was a really interesting, helpful course that was not hard to understand. Personally as a beginner, I would recommend downloading and using the resources offered so that you can work alongside Izzy and learn by doing exactly what he is doing. I have learnt a lot from it and look forward to practicing with my own footage. Thank you!

The instructor explained everything very fluently and really knows what he is teaching. I have to say that this is suitable for beginners (coming from a beginner FCP user) on how to use FCPX! Even Intermediate-advanced FCPX people may learn new shortcut keys that they may not even know it existed! A free course that is filled with advance knowledge! DESERVE A 5 STAR RATING! If I can give 10/5 I would. This course deserves far beyond amazing.

By Kenidra on 12/20/2019

Although this is a course for beginners, Izzy is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented and organized, entire tutorial was done and spoken with clarity. I would have to say that the orange ring around the arrow was indeed very very helpful, my eyes didn't have to strain to see where/ what he was pointing to. All in all I would highly recommend this course. I'm also considering joining his mastery membership, from Izzyvideo.com, because he has taught me a lot and I'm interested in learning more.

By Paul Leyva on 11/10/2019

I am not able to express how grateful I am with Izzy, for creating such amazing and comprehensive course for free. his explanations are clear and well structured and this course is just....incredible. Izzy, If you read this, thank you so very much for creating this course! it is 1000 times better than some other paid courses that I have taken. :)

By Les Crause on 7/18/2019

He explains everything in good detail and covers all essential principles without overwhelming. Easy to follow. I am feeling confident I can learn this app quickly. Although he goes quickly through the lessons, this course will give you all the basics and show you what the App can do. You could then do a more advanced course to learn details of each feature.

By Rick McKay on 2/7/2019

I found this course very easy to follow and I'm enjoying it very much. Izzy (the tutor) explains things very clearly and comes across as a very likeable chap. I felt intimidated before I started learning about Final Cut Pro X, but I can honestly say that, once I got started, I felt very much at ease. Once I've had a chance to make a few videos and get my head around all I'v learned here, I will most definitely look at diving in a bit deeper with Izzy's other Udemy courses on Final Cut Pro
